AYIIIA ELIZARRARAS INTERVIEW- [B]conducted by twitter.com/themaryrestifo[/B]
1) How has MTV affected your life?
Ayiiia: MTV has affected my life in a very positive way. It has given me the opportunity to speak out and let people know that it's ok to be who you are, no matter who disagrees with it.
2) Do you plan on doing challenges for MTV?
Ayiiia: I am definitely looking forward to going on some challenges and kicking butt. I've been watching them for years and have been studying the veterans to see who's trustworthy and who isn't.
3) Have the friendships you made from RW made you happy?
Ayiiia: I love the friendships i have made with not only my roommates but the locals of Cancun. I still keep in touch with most of them. My roommates and I have very special bonds, only we know what we went through and grew up a little more with one another.
4) Did you ever think that you would be on TV?
Ayiiia: I have always known Id be on TV someday. Throughout middle and high school I have always said I would and now i have childhood/teenage friends writing me saying that they always knew I would be on their television screens and couldn't be happier. I definitely always believed that you can do anything you want to do.
5) Be honest, was ANY of the show scripted/set up?
Ayiiia: 100% honest... none of it was scripted or set up... besides the intro of course :) other than that, everything that was shown happened whether we liked it or not.
6) Are you single? If no, who are you with?
Ayiiia: I am taken by the beautiful blonde bombshell Krystal Corliss who is the owner/designer of Tasteless Candy Clothing and we are very happy together.
7) Describe your style?
Ayiiia: I don't have a style, I'm very versatile. I dress depending on my mood. I'm the type that can rock converse one day, leather boots the next & heels by night.
8) What kind of music do you like?
Ayiiia: I love anything I can dance too like Britney Spears & Lady Gaga but I also have a very soft side which is when I like to listen to Etta James and Billie Holiday. Kings of Leon are my newest addiction.
9) Do any friends of yours before TV treat you different?
Ayiiia: My closest BEST friends do not treat me different. They always knew I'd entertain but they've always known the dorky silly sensitive real side of me. I definitely could never get away with acting like any type of diva with them and i love and keep them around for that.
10) If you could change one thing that happened in the house, what would it be?
Ayiiia: I would of liked showing my comedic side a little more from the beginning. It took me a while to put my guard down with my roommates.
11) Do you regret hooking up with Joey?
Ayiiia: I do and don't. I do because that's definitely not in my character and I'm just another one of his many girls but I also don't because I learned and now I have Krystal haha.
12) What do you want to do in life?
Ayiiia: Besides continuing to entertain, speaking out and building my own success, I want to be happy with my life.
13) Is your family important to you?
Ayiiia: My family is very important to me, we're all pretty close, although I am having a little trouble with acceptance right now.
14) Are you religious?
Ayiiia: No. I don't have a religion. I do believe in a higher source but not a specific one. I've seen and experienced too much unjust and hate. I respect peoples beliefs but i don't find it right to influence, preach or sometimes threaten others to believe in what they believe in.
15) What would you like to say to your fans?
Ayiiia: I love and appreciate every single one of you. Thank you for accepting and understanding the person that I am. All I'm trying to do is show people that it is possible to make your dreams come true while being yourself, whether it's accepted or not. Never be ashamed of who you are... be proud.
16) Would you do a follow-up with me in a few months?
Ayiiia: Absolutely. one of the best interviews I've had in a long time. Thank you!
